Gateway - upload excel/.doc files - error

[Former Member]

Hi,

We are trying to upload excel/.doc files through gateway.

We get an error on gateway client :

"An invalid character was found in text content"

All other file types can be uploaded with create_Stream method.

Any inputs on the possible causes for same?

Hi Megna,

Did your file name has foreign characters ? Please give more details about file name , file content ( to check if the file is corrupted with invalid and junk characters/boxes/slashes).

Hi Prabhakaran,

I have tried testing with file containing very basic data.

No symbols or foreign character.

It doesn't work for Word and excel files.

Hi Meghna,

Thanks for the details. Did you try passing below http headers while making AJAX call.

Hi Prabhakaran,

Am testing from gateway client. So the ajax call doesnt come into picture.

Hi Meghna,

Did you get a chance to add this header from Gateway client before sending the request.

Are you also passing the file length to the gateway? And where do you get the error - From the Gateway Layer or when you put the file from Gateway to the DB/file repo?
